I only ever saw one set of 40" Nitto in action locally and was kind of shocked how bad they were here. We watched this dude flounder around trying to make a climb for probably 15-20 minutes. It seemed as soon as they got wet/muddy they didn't really hook at all. Of course it could have been rig set up, pressure, driver ect. Just curious if they are like that for you?I will say I have no complaints on my nitto trail grapplers in 40x13.50r17. They have been super tough on a heavy rig.
I will also say my dad is running a set of cooper STT pro in 40x13.50r17 and they are stupid how well they work. Nearly sticky-ish, flexy and so far tough.
IDk, i run Rausch, AOAA, Rock Run, Windrock, etc. and havent had issues. Lol hope it wasnt me.

No, not you
Pretty much the same stuff, AOAA, RC, Gore but mostly FRO. My perception is often off since I'm on stickies but I walked right up the climb covered in snot with fresh mud on my near bald tires. I turned around and came back down so we could run him back out and he struggled to get back out too. I've seen others on DOT tires walk right up this spot so we just assumed it was tires that day.
No need to get experimental. For DOT tires you cannot beat the MT/R's or KM3's. I have a couple wheeling buddies who swear by the Maxxis Razr's but that's just a couple data points.Any new news on the latest tires to come out?
Cooper sst pros. Just bought my 3rd set this year ive been so impressed with them.Because its been a few months I figured its time to throw a little lighter fluid back on this thread. Im looking for 37s on 17s for a full body street driven yota that plays with buggies. Its had some half tread Pat's on for a little bit and they suck something awful. Grooving made them liveable... but barely.
Tires you don't see much feedback from real crawling:
Maxxis Razr MT- Little feedback out there is good
Yokohama G003 MT- Only ever seen below 35s on land cruisers.
Yokohama X-MT G005- Streetable krawler with sipes?
Kanati Mud Hog- PNW guys seem to like them
MT/Rs did solid on it and I run KM3s in smaller flavors on my other rigs with great results but I want actual 37s without having to pay 39in prices. The X-MT is probably the most interesting for the east coast wheeling we do but compound is key for wet rock. $450 a tire is tough to want to be the guinea pig.

These are just single trips so not great info but more data points. I saw Razrs on a buddies JKU in Moab and wasn't impressed. He was chirping tires where no one else would.Because its been a few months I figured its time to throw a little lighter fluid back on this thread.

BTT
Nitto K specs, how can one get them?
Also, i run 40" sticky treps and love them. About 1/3 through the tread after 3 years
KO2 Load C 35” 315 Raptor/Hummer tire. I’ve ran them on two different vehicles. Only issue is they start to feather cup the outside edge depending on road crown and alignment.I've been struggling with trying to find a 35" / 315 diameter in either a 16" or 17" wheel size that isn't a load E. From my findings, the MT/R is discontinued, Goodyear replaced it with a tire called the "territory". It looks like they copied the KM/3. Currently looking for 5 Maxxis Trep radials. They'd be going on my TJ.
Not that I'm going to do this, just checking my options. I am looking for a 33-35 that is less than a 12.50. Not a lot of options anymore. Someone mentioned using SXS tires on lighter rigs. How light is light? I saw some SXS tires that have a load index of 2200 lbs. Whats the rules or formula for how much your rig weighs compared to what the tires are rated for?

I ran them in the 40" on my buggy. No issues. I sold them and got a set of sticky treps for no real reason. They did great. I run them on my FJ40 as well and they work great here on the east coast in all conditions. They run great on the road as well.Anyone have experience with the 40" maxxis razr? Are they a true 40? How do they perform? Amazon has them for $520
